Merry-Go-Round Reigen Collection of 12 original photographs from the 1973 film
Vienna: Lisa-Film 1973. Collection of 12 vintage oversize double weight reference photographs for the 1973 German film based on the controversial 1897 play "Reigen" "La Ronde" by Arthur Schnitzler Adapted three time previously; by Max Ophuls in 1950 and Roger Vadim in 1964 both as "La Ronde" and by Richard Lerner and Paul Glickler in 1971 as "Hot Circuit" as well as several time subsequently. <br /> <br /> Schnitzler's play which satirizes the sexual and class morals of its era was not produced on stage until 1920 although published versions in various languages were available as early as 1900. With its frank sexual nature and depictions of relationships that crossed class and cultural lines the play was immediately condemned as pornography and withdrawn from the German stage although it remained popular elsewhere. <br /> <br /> The play consists of a series of vignettes each featuring a pair of lovers with each character appearing in two consecutive scenes with one character in the first scene appearing in the last. <br /> <br /> The photographs in this collection are from four scenes each featuring either Sydne Rome or Maria Schneider as follows:<br /> <br /> One photograph of Hans Bremmer and Rome as "The Soldier and the Parlor Maid."<br /> <br /> Four photographs of Rome and Helmut Berger as "The Parlor Maid and the Young Gentleman."<br /> <br /> Five photographs of Peter Weck and Schneider as "The Husband and the Little Miss."<br /> <br /> Two photographs of Schneider and Michael Heltau as "The Little Miss and the Poet." <br /> <br /> 9.5 x 12.25 inches. Near Fine. Lisa-Film unknown

Spring Shower Original screenplay for the 1932 film
Budapest: Hunnia Filmstudio 1929. Specially bound copy of an Early Draft script for the Hungarian film released in Hungry in 1932 as "Tavaszi zapor" in Frace in 1933 as "Marie Legende Hongroise" and in the United States in 1935 as "Spring Shower." Housed in a likely hand-sewn floral cloth-covered portfolio the script is INSCRIBED by the Hungarian-American feminist and radical socialist screenwriter Ilona Fulop on the title page: "To Mac: / Because You still trust me! / Ilona / Christmas 1929 / Hollywood Cal." A unique and attractive item and probably the only surviving copy of the script. <br /> <br /> The story of a poor girl driven out of her village when she becomes pregnant by her employer's wealthy fiance finding refuge working as a maid in a brothel. After her daughter is taken from her however she falls into alcoholism and dies. A maid in Heaven as she was on earth she saves her daughter from befalling a similar fate by "emptying her mop bucket" on her daughter's head via a rain shower at a pivotal moment. <br /> <br /> A multinational production in which a Hungarian screenwriter and Hungarian director both with experience in Hollywood shot a film starring a French actress using frozen assets from a French producer that had been mandated for exclusively Hungarian use. Though not a box office success at the time it is now regarded as one of the all-time great films originating from the country. In a 1919 article entitled "What is 'Revolution' Doing to Love" screenwriter Fulop describes herself as a socialist radical as opposed to a revolutionary or a Bolshevik and her desire to further equal rights for women strongly defines her as a modern-day feminist as well. "Spring Showers" with its women- and proletarian-friendly plot thus comes as little surprise. <br /> <br /> Housed in floral cloth-covered portfolio titled wrappers. Title page present with credits for screenwriter Fulop. 78 leaves with last page of text numbered 77. Carbon typescript. Pages Very Good portfolio Very Good bound with a single line of hand-stitching. Hunnia Filmstudio unknown
